secondary lead slag

[pabasolo]

Any help about possible usage (or disposal options) for lead slag?
it has 55% of Fe and 1.5% of Pb. It is obviously a dangeours residue, so disposal is both expensive and complex.
Any suggestion is welcomed.
Thnks

Hi Pabasolo,

I work in a secondary lead plant in Australia, and would be interested in comparing notes with you.. Currently we send our secondary lead slag to prescribed waste but are researching alternatives.

Kind regards,
